Catch Trout Using These Simple Tips

2016/7/16 16:35:32

Number 1. Ultra light fishing gear is a must if you are hoping to catch trout. Too often, fishermen or women try to use medium capacity tackle when at the river trying to catch a trout. It is a huge mistake and you are unlikely to catch fish. Instead, you must use tackle in the form of an ultra light rod and reel and the lightest possible fishing line.

From my own experience, I have found that 4 pound mono filament line is the most suitable when fishing for trout. Using a light line and tackle are the best tools for trout fishing, especially if you're fishing in small streams or rivers.

Number 2. Be aware of your shadow. Refrain from casting a shadow on the area you will be fishing, particularly when fishing in small rivers and streams. Casting a shadow is a certain way to scare away the larger, older trout from the area. Take my word for it, if you want to catch trout, you must be aware of your shadow.

Number 3. I am sure that no artificial bait or lure beats the effectiveness of a plain-old live worm when it comes to catching trout. For me, a live worm riding the current of a small river or stream will attract trout most times the fish are present. And the best way to rig a live worm for trout fishing is to use a set of gang hooks. With ganged hooks, light tackle and live worms you are well on the way to a good catch.

Number 4. Other than worms, small spinners, in the 3-7/16 range, are another great bait for catching trout. While effective in many trout fishing situations, the small spinners are perfect for fishing rivers and streams. Practice popping your rod tip while allowing the spinner to flow with the current can be especially effective. Using dark colors such as black or brown with gold blades can prove irresistible to trout. Be sure to attach your spinner to your line with a small barrel swivel for best results. Not only will it stop your line from twisting, but it will also make sure that your spinner works properly.

You should find that using any or all of these tricks of the trade will make you a much better trout angler. There you have it. Just put these tips into practice, as the sooner you do, the sooner you will be proudly displaying your catch.
